It's going just be simple execution of Ukrainians. I really doubt in 2 months a single Ukrainian who visited kursk will be alive
Russia fines Google more money than there is in entire world 11 hours ago Graham Fraser Technology reporter https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cdxvnwkl5kgo Getty Images A Russian court has imposed the fine on the US Tech giant A Russian court has fined Google two undecillion roubles - a two followed by 36 zeroes - for restricting Russian state media channels on YouTube. In dollar terms that means the tech giant has been told to pay $20,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000. Despite being one of the world's wealthiest companies, that is considerably more than the $2 trillion Google is worth. In fact, it is far greater than the world’s total GDP, which is estimated by the International Monetary Fund to be $110 trillion. The fine has reached such a gargantuan level because - as state news agency Tass has highlighted - it is rapidly increasing all the time. According to Tass, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov admitted he "cannot even pronounce this number" but urged "Google management to pay attention." The company has not commented publicly or responded to a BBC request for a statement. A fine mess Russia media outlet RBC reports the fine on Google relates to the restriction of content of 17 Russian media channels on YouTube. While this started in 2020, it escalated after Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine two years later. That saw most Western companies pull out of Russia, with doing business there also tightly restricted by sanctions. Russian media outlets were also banned in Europe - prompting retaliatory measures from Moscow. In 2022, Google’s local subsidiary was declared bankrupt and the company has stopped offering its commercial services in Russia, such as advertising. However, its products are not completely banned in the country. This development is the latest escalation between Russia and the US tech giant. In May, 2021, Russia’s media regulator Roskomnadzor accused Google of restricting YouTube access to Russian media outlets, including RT and Sputnik, and supporting "illegal protest activity". Then, in July, 2022, Russia fined Google 21.1bn rouble (£301m) for failing to restrict access to what it called "prohibited" material about the war in Ukraine and other content. There is virtually no press freedom in Russia, with independent news outlets and freedom of expression severely curtailed.
Hey @kashirin be sure to save the 5 rubles you are getting per post. So when Putin sends you to Ukraine --after all the North Koreans are hors de combat -- you will be able to bribe your commanding officer to avoid being placed directly at the front. Bribes keep Russian marines off frontlines as morale plummets https://english.nv.ua/nation/russia...ment-amid-heavy-losses-in-kursk-50463088.html Russian military commanders are demanding bribes from soldiers in occupied Crimea in exchange for not being sent to Kursk Oblast amid growing number of daily reports of casualties on the frontlines, the Ukrainian and Crimean Tatar resistance movement Atesh reported on Telegram on Nov. 1. The 810th Marine Brigade, based in Sevastopol, is facing personnel problems as most of its personnel have been deployed to Kursk Oblast. The brigade command is trying to hide the deaths of soldiers, but their efforts are unsuccessful. As a result, morale within the unit is low due to the constant loss of comrades, and soldiers are doing everything they can to stay in Crimea. Taking advantage of the situation, some commanders demand bribes. Those who pay the bribes are able to stay at the base and create the appearance of active operations through activities such as setting up camouflage barriers and moving equipment. They remain in constant fear of possible Ukrainian "surprise" attacks on the base. According to a recent statement by Vladyslav Voloshyn, spokesperson for the Ukrainian military, Russia had stationed approximately 200,000 troops in southern Ukraine.
Russian personnel carriers now. Also good for cattle. (obviously not shortage of BMPs everywhere, but an interesting tendency)
Sadly Russsia began to crack down on people filming these so there is much less video material of recent attacks than a month back.
